| Abstract | Abstract : This work discusses our ongoing development of a 100-kV, 130- kW modulator for use in high-power microwave research. This modulator is designed to deliver 1 microsecond pulses at a 1-KHz repetition rate into a 70 omega load. The pulser utilizes an ITT F-316 four-gap thyratron to switch two 5-section E*-type pulse-forming lines connected in a Blumlein configuration. The pulser is relatively compact, and can be moved from testbed to testbed. We will review our pulser design and present data demonstrating the operation of the pulser, showing output voltage and current waveforms. 1-kHz PRF operation as yet can not be demonstrated due to power supply limitations, although submillisecond recharge times have been observed indicating the pulser is 1-kHz capable. |
